Barnes Common Limited formed in 1992 and has been a not-for-profit, limited liability company with charitable status since April 2013. For decades known as Friends of Barnes Common, the charity changed its name in 2022 to Barnes Common Limited (BCL) to reflect its evolving nature and help further growth. It is heavily involved in conservation, community and education engagement.
Barnes Conservation, part of BCL, is responsible for our nature conservation work across multiple sites within the Borough of Richmond upon Thames.
Vine Road Recreation Ground is currently in the consultation phase of a proposed major enhancement of the site.
Today, the charity is overseen by a Board of Directors. We have an active, growing membership, many of whom are part of our dedicated and invaluable team of volunteers. Each member of our staff team brings a unique skillset to help further our common purpose.
Our Sites
In addition to Barnes Common, we oversee the stewardship of the amenity greenspace at Vine Road Park and the Leg o’ Mutton Local Nature Reserve.
